A DC-controllable EcoTech MP40 clone at a fraction of the price. BRS measured the real MP40 at ~24° — a narrow, long-throw cone that reaches the far end of a tank — and the DMP40 mimics that spread with Bluetooth control. The value pick for directional, reachy flow.
Jecod (aka Jebao) built the DMP40 as a deliberate EcoTech MP40 clone — thicker cage, external 24V DC motor, magnetic mount, Bluetooth app plus a physical LCD controller. It pushes a genuine ~5,000 GPH and throws a narrow ~24° cone, the same coherent long-throw shape as the MP40 it copies, for roughly a third of the price. The trade-off is the app and QC, not the water it moves.
"Runs on the Atlantis V2 peninsula paired with the Tunze 6075 — DMP40 low on the wall end aimed straight down the 48in length for reach, 6075 filling the near width. ~$150 doing an MP40-shaped job."
